So I decided to start training Lucy (she's 14 weeks old) some basic commands, and much to my delight she is a very quick learner.

On Wednesday night she was being rowdy, nipping at my fingers and toes, which is a problem we are trying desperately to stop, we grab her muzzle and tell her no-no and even have gone to the lengths of putting bitter apple on our fingers and toes, then giving her an appropriate chew toy. IF ANYONE HAS ANY OTHER SUGGESTIONS ON HOW TO CONTROL THIS I NEED IT!

But anyway, I decided that I would try to train her the sit command, well after 2 days (each day 15-20 minutes) she has learned to sit on command. I'm so happy and proud of her. Now I'm going to move on to paw and other paw and stay.
